Woman Investigated For Taking Part In Public Assembly Without Permit Outside The Embassy Of China

The Police are investigating a 32-year-old Singaporean woman for allegedly taking part in a public assembly outside the Embassy of China without a permit.

On 28 November 2022 at about 12.55pm, the Police were alerted to an incident where a woman was allegedly staging a protest pertaining to issues in China. We directed the woman to stop her protest and she complied.

The Police would like to remind the public that organising or participating in a public assembly without a Police permit in Singapore constitutes an offence under the Public Order Act.

Separately, the Police have received queries about foreigners in Singapore advocating for causes relating to issues in China through for example the display of posters. Foreigners visiting, working or living in Singapore should not import the politics of their countries into Singapore, and are reminded to abide by our laws.
